At CeBIT 2003, ACS will be presenting the new generation of smart card readers which will meet the highest requirements by customers such as ACR80 smart card terminal, ACR38 USB 2.0 smart card reader, ACR90 PCMCIA reader, and AET60 BioCardKey.

Balance readers - A new sample kit

ACS developed a new sample kit containing 2 balance readers together with some sample cards as indicated on the left. The kit can be used as an add-on component to any end-user demonstration involving smart card applications. The balance readers will display information stored in the card and will be a good proof of concept for a variety of applications.

ACS supplies custom made balance readers to read different cards and display different contents. New casings can be designed as required by customers.

The ACR80 is a secure PC-linked smart card terminal featuring a 4 by 24 line character dot-matrix liquid crystal display providing up to 122 x 32 pixel graphic image display. It includes a 16 key keypad with 4 function keys, 2 smart card slots and 6 SAM card slots

It is ideal for applications such as home-banking and electronic commerce where a simple PC-based smart card reader does not meet your security requirements - such as PIN entry and confirmation of transaction details before signing.

The ACT38 is a miniature reader to accept plug-in type smart cards (SIM-sized card). This new design will complement our latest USB 2.0 reader, the ACR38, also featured below. Scheduled for release in Q2, 2003.

Today's smart cards demand a reader which can change a standard PC into a secure IT platform. With support for the latest high-speed smart cards, the ACR38 is flexible, compact, simple to use and will meet your security needs.

The ACR38 is designed to meet all major international standards like ISO7816, EMV level 1, Microsoft WHQL, USB2.0, PC/SC and more. With fully plug and play USB 2.0 technology, the ACR38 can be easily integrated into an existing computer system. The product is to be launched in CeBIT, 2003.
